Six men charged over hoon driving behaviour

Six men have been charged with reckless driving after police in the Pilbara allegedly found video of their activities on their mobile phones.

In May, two men were convicted when they were caught on security cameras driving recklessly in Port Hedland.

Police reviewed two mobile phones seized from the men and used video they contained to charge them, and another four people, with further offences.

The vision allegedly shows one of the men travelling at up to 247 kilometres an hour in a 110 kmh zone.

He has been charged with two counts of alleged drag racing and two of alleged burn-outs.

Another man has been charged with four counts of reckless driving, allegedly doing burn-outs and 'fish-tailing' on a gravel road.

Inspector Peter Morrissey says such risk-taking behaviour is a recipe for disaster.

"We have seen it before, we have seen it in WA, we have seen it in the eastern states, we have seen it overseas where cars then end up careering across the road into a crowd of people and someone either gets seriously injured or dies," he said.
